Today has been tough. I usually work 16 to 17 hours a week (all on my startup) but today I really spread myself thin. I don't know what got into me, but I thought I could take on extra work and help a few startups out as a consultant to help get them off the ground (Game Show Buzzer Sound Here)!!!!! Although I am very interested in one, I honestly do not know how I thought I could begin helping others. If I was the kind of person to go half ass, then maybe, but when I work on something, I go one million and 20 quadrillion %. Well I guess a lot of that I can't control because of my (undiagnosed) OCD :-) Anyway, I digress. It is very important to not kill yourself while work and do what you love. The gears are always turning in my head to do more and more...like how can I fix this, or what about adding this, or what about this idea, or what about creating this! Yea, many of the ideas are good but at the end of the day, I had to remind myself to stay focused on one thing and not get sidetracked at the moment. It helps to have people like my wife that are partners and is here to keep me sane at times :) Lesson today: Work hard, work less, enjoy your friends & family, quit when it is time to quit, and stay focused on the primary task at hand.
